CORE--BIOMETRY

生物识别核心将提供适当的基础设施，以支持佛罗里达大学超级基金基础研究计划(SBRP)研究项目和其他核心的统计需求。这些需要包括为研究人员提供规划和设计咨询、协助开发计算机数据库应用程序、质量保证/监测、统计分析和报告。计算资源以及核心主任在实验设计、临床试验、描述性和分析性流行病学研究领域的经验都将有助于SBRP有能力开展本提案所述的广泛研究。这一核心提供了使用最先进的计算机设施和专家生物统计分析的途径。这一核心还将在设计后续调查员方面提供持续支助，包括形成研究假设以及为今后的研究选择适当的研究设计和分析程序。

The Biometrics Core will provide the appropriate infrastructure to support for the statistical needs of the University of Florida Superfund Basic Research Program (SBRP) research projects and other cores. These needs include planning and design consultation for research investigators, assistance with the development of computer database applications, quality assurance/monitoring, statistical analysis and reporting. Both the computing resources as well as the experiences of the core director in the areas of experimental design, clinical trials, descriptive and analytic epidemiology studies will contribute to the ability of the SBRP to conduct the broad range of research described in this proposal. This core provides access to state-of-the-art computer facilities and expert biostatistical analysis. This core will also provide ongoing support with regards to design successor investigators both in the formation of research hypotheses as well as selection of the appropriate study design and analytic procedures for future studies.
